These simple-to-use, software as a service (SaaS) applications can be activated quickly and deliver enterprise-grade data management capabilities for analyzing, discovering, and recovering Office 365 data wherever and whenever necessary.

Organizations are rapidly adopting cloud office environments like Office 365. According to Gartner, “By 2021, more than 70% of business users will be substantially provisioned with cloud office capabilities.”1 As organizations begin to fully realize the numerous benefits associated with Office 365 subscriptions, it is critical they also take steps to protect their Office 365 data to help ensure it is easily recoverable in the event of a data loss. Organizations should also ensure their Office 365 files are preserved and searchable to comply with strict regulatory requirements.

Veritas Data Protection and Governance for Office 365 gives organizations critical tools to manage their Office 365 data including Veritas SaaS Backup, a new cloud-to-cloud backup and recovery solution designed for comprehensive Office 365 data protection and recovery, and Veritas Information Map and Veritas Enterprise Vault.cloud.

These offerings are highly scalable and provide holistic coverage across the Office 365 ecosystem including Microsoft Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint Online, Skype for Business, Microsoft Teams, and Yammer.

Veritas SaaS Backup is a unified data protection solution that ties together backup, search and restore capabilities in a single user interface for all Office 365 data.
